Israel James Blum graveyard-Hoose Chesire
« on: Wednesday 23 November 11 08:27 GMT (UK) »
Hi,

I'm trying to locate the burial place of my relative Israel James Blum. He was murdered and buried in Hoylake church in 1866. I don't know which church it just says in the Bradford Observer he was buried at Hoylake church. I'm assuming there was just one church there at that time? Can you please help?

Thank you so much! That's my relative. Can you please direct me to where you got this info as I'd like to print it for my record.  I'm hoping that I could get a photo of his graveyard if possible. (It may have his parents name on it? or it'll be really nice to see his final resting place) How do you suggest I go about finding that?

Thanks again!
Elizabeth

Hoose appears to have been a township served by St Bridget C of E church West Kirby. The church had a graveyard. Registers are at Cheshire Record Office. I can't see that anyone has done the MIs for the churchyard so it would be case of wandering around the churchyard looking for a gravestone. There may not be one.

West Kirby is over the water in Cheshire. It might be better to post your request in the Cheshire forum.

Hi

If he was buried in Hoylake then it would probably be Hoylake, Holy Trinity.

Findmypast has the Cheshire Parish Registers images and Israels is there according to the free index. The image might confirm which actual church.

I'm sure that the Holy Trinity burial register or MIs have been published , perhaps if a moderator transferred this to the Cheshire Board someone might be able to help.

Hi,

I'm trying to locate, if possible a picture of my relative Israel James Blum. He was buried in Hoose, Chesire, May, 1866. I think the exact burial place to be in Hoylake, Holy Trinity Church. Could someone please help. I would like to read the inscription on his tombstone, if he has one.

Kind regards,
Elizabeth

I meant a picture of his tombstone. However there are some newspaper articles that says his picture is on another newspaper, but haven't come across it yet...(I hope, I will soon)
